And I thought that I wouldn't have enough material to write about....I always think I have nothing interesting to share with others...And well, that still may be the case...this may not be interesting or entertaining material but it is "something". I am hoping that writing this blog will help me to remember some of the funny things that happened (or were said) during the day as well as to keep track of milestones and memories....
....So here we go...this morning started out as a fairly routine morning...two little girls come stampeding into the room and climb into bed with Keith and I...Lauren usually snuggles in on the left side and Kathryn is on my right...somehow they allow Keith to keep sleeping. After about ten minutes of snuggling we got up and made our way downstairs. John was still sleeping which is a little unusual for him. We think he is still recovering from his eye surgery that he had last Friday. I would normally let him keep sleeping but we needed to get his eye drops in before Keith headed off to work for the day. The eye drops are definitely a two person job since he knows how to squeeze his eyes together with the strength of a sumo wrestler! Poor little guy still has a hard time opening his eyes in the morning, the drops definitely help but the corners of his eyes are very red and irritated looking...all of this is normal according to the doctor.
Lauren and Kathryn entered into their normal morning play and outbursts of arguments routine...until I finally gave into their multiple requests to paint their fingernails. So while I enjoyed a few minutes of peace and finished my coffee they were busy "caking" fingernail polish onto their fingers and hands and paper towels...you get the picture. This few minutes of peace costs me a good 15 minutes of clean up...oh well...at least they had fun doing something they wanted. While I was cleaning Lauren's hands off I noticed she had something very sticky in her hair, she proceeded to tell me that it was tree sap. So, I did what any other Mother of this generation would do and I immediately typed "tree in sap in hair" into the google search. Her options were mayo or peanut butter...she picked the mayo! So, that brings us to where we are now...I am typing this while she is sitting in the chair watching TV with mayo smeared into her hair. Next up, bath time and then lunch and she will head off to school...oh, and Keith has to come home from work so he can assist me with John's eye drops!
Hope you enjoy your day!
